Lapras is a post‑training framework for Time Series Language Models that replaces explicit Chain‑of‑Thought reasoning with continuous latent thoughts in a joint time‑series‑language space. By self‑distilling from a teacher that generates textual rationales, the student model aligns its hidden states at the answer stage, transferring reasoning ability while producing only the final answer in text. Experiments on four TSLM backbones and five benchmarks show Lapras boosts average F1 by up to 10.79% over explicit CoT and reduces token generation by 23.9×, while still enabling readable reasoning traces through standard decoding.

KairosAgent is an agentic framework that combines a large language model (LLM) reasoner with a time series foundation model (TSFM) forecaster to tackle cross‑domain multimodal time series forecasting. It dynamically invokes analytical tools to improve the LLM’s numerical comprehension and semantic reasoning, then fuses the reasoning outcomes into the TSFM pipeline for more accurate predictions. The approach is further enhanced by a curated large‑scale trajectory corpus and a reinforcement learning paradigm with multi‑turn refinement and turn‑level credit assignment, achieving superior zero‑shot forecasting performance.

NeST is a framework that adapts large language models (LLMs) for continuous time‑series forecasting by creating neighborhood‑aware text prototypes and aligning them with temporal representations through a nearest‑neighbor contrastive objective. It retrieves the most relevant prototypes and uses them to conditionally modulate time‑series features, enabling more effective integration of textual and temporal information. Experiments show that NeST outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods on eight benchmarks, reduces MSE by 1.2% for long‑term forecasting, improves zero‑shot forecasting by 4.9%, and boosts R² by 3.3% on a real‑world photovoltaic power forecasting task.
